Hello quiz bowlers! My name is Claudia and I am excited to be live blogging for @PACENSC 2023! The competition starts this weekend, so check back for updates tomorrow.
TU10. Immediate buzz for Charles, but it's not Soyinka. Elliott tries to power vulch, but converts Ngugi wa Thiong'o for 10. Impressive nonetheless. Bonus centering on the science of civic construction for a halftime score of TJ A 210–Barrington A 170 #PACENSC2023
TU8. Andrew keeps the momentum going, getting 10 on the Robert Burns tossup. It's a bonus on exchange rates for the Virginians, and they figure out 20. TJ A 170–Barrington A 130 #PACENSC2023
TU2. Elliott swoops in to get the burning bush for 10. One could say TJ's been on fire today. (Hehe.) Frank Lloyd Wright bonus for 20. TJ A 30–Barrington A 50 #PACENSC2023
Finals will be in Rosemont Ballroom momentarily. I've got the best seat in the house, right up at the officials table. Fancy shmancy. Follow along here to track the goings-on at the final game of #PACENSC2023! @PACENSC

For anyone wondering, protests will all be resolved at the end of Round 16; after results are announced, you can pick up your paper protest resolutions at the info desk during lunch. #PACENSC@PACE_infodesk
TU20: Elliott grabs the last tosss-up for 10! TJ then earns 10 points on the bonus.
Final score is Thomas Jefferson A 420 to St. Mark's 220.
Great game!
